Hi, I've recently qualified as a PADI Open Water Diver and am keen to do a bit of diving this summer, however this may be a mix of UK coastal diving and diving in warmer climates. Having spoken to a few people, I've decided to hire kit and spend money on diving whilst I work out what BCD, Regs etc I like. One area where I'm a bit uncertain though is over suit choice - my local dive centre just offers dry suit diving which would involve another course and if I can get away with it I will use another dive club and dive in a wetsuit in UK waters. The question is, will a wetsuit be warm enough for UK summer waters (south coast). Also, would it be feasible to get a 5mm wetsuit to use in warmer waters eg Red sea, Mediterranean etc and use this in the UK with some form of undersuit to keep me warm?
